SCA: security update for github.com/quic-go/quic-go (GHSA-g754-hx8w-x2g6)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 436357

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - quic-go is an implementation of the QUIC protocol in Go. Versions 0.56.0 and below are vulnerable to
 excessive memory allocation through quic-go's HTTP/3 client and server implementations by sending a QPACK-
 encoded HEADERS frame that decodes into a large header field section (many unique header names and/or
 large values). The implementation builds an http.Header (used on the http.Request and http.Response,
 respectively), while only enforcing limits on the size of the (QPACK-compressed) HEADERS frame, but not on
 the decoded header, leading to memory exhaustion. This issue is fixed in version 0.57.0. (CVE-2025-64702)
